• Free: Three versions of bumblebee at white vetch flowers

  I am loving giving some of my photos away on Pexels.com, with the understanding that those who are inspired to do so will make a contribution to this extremely dedicated photographer, photo editor, videographer, etc. Here are three versions of a photograph of a tricolored (Hunt’s?) bumblebee hovering by white vetch flowers. (Vetches are in […]

  Hi! Many of my photos are now downloadable, free, here— https://www.pexels.com/@jim-wilce-423947101 I love shooting, and I love sharing what I shoot. But does it seem strange to give away photos that I post for sale elsewhere? One “fstoppers” expert claims the free versions don’t compete with the commercial products. We’ll see. The key is you […]

• Cinder Cones And Clouds: Original And “Final”

  If you liked the Ravens shots, before and after editing, you’ll love this pairing. On 10/15/22 around sunset on a cold, cloudy day, I drove from home (elevation 7000′) to the Arizona Snowbowl (elevation 9200). This photo was shot on “my return to ground” closer to 7000′. You will see that my edits involved brightening […]

• Ravens: Showing You Originals And Final Versions

  Sometimes it is interesting for photographer and audience to compare unedited or original versions with their “final” counterparts. (My images are almost never final, but always potential subjects for reworking.) Here I show you two raven photos that I just uploaded to Fine Art America, but you get to see what FAA folks do not– […]

• Moonset in the Mountains 17March2022

  Until recently, a huge frustration in shooting the bright moon and its dimmer context was this— I could 1) brighten the whole image in order to make the context visible, washing out the features of the moon, 2) dim the moon and make the context even less visible, or 3) use a brush to change […]
